I really wanted to like this book, because the art is gorgeous, and the premise intrigued me. However, it just feels extremely loosely put together, and it's hard to follow why the characters do what they do. There's ideas there, but they feel more like they're rushing to hit point after point instead of actually developing.
However, if you're just in the mood for some chill BL that's different than a lot of the available options on the localized market, without caring too deep about how well it's written, you might enjoy it. After all, the art is gorgeous, and the base of the characters and plot are fine.
